    Birmingham 0-0 Newcastle

    Tomasz Kuszczak is basically single-handedly keeping Birmingham City in this match.

    Again, the Blues keeper is at his best to deny a fierce strike from Matt Ritchie. Kuszczak like a man possessed today.

    Burton 3-3 Brentford

    Brentford go so close to a fourth goal but somehow Burton survive.

    First Jota hits the post, then Nico Yennaris forces a save from Jon McLaughlin, before Ben Turner clears Yennaris' follow up. It's getting desperate at the Pirelli now.

    It looks like there could be a battling point for Birmingham City up for grabs today but the game is beginning to get stretched.

    Brighton will be looking on at this last 15 with interest...

    Fulham 1-3 Wolves

    Huge goal with ramifications at both ends of the Championship.

    Helder Costa, who has been excellent today, shows strength to burst down the right-hand side, clip a ball into the middle for Dave Edwards and the Welshman slots home.

    A third straight victory for Wolves looks on the cards now.

    Wigan 0-1 Aston Villa, Norwich 2-0 Barnsley

    Aston Villa take the lead at struggling Wigan, who are in danger of being cut adrift in the Championship relegation zone with many of their rivals collecting points.

    Centre-back James Chester scrambles in the opener from close range.

    Meanwhile, an Angus MacDonald own goal has put Norwich 2-0 up against Barnsley.

    League One & League Two latest

    Heavy rain in many places has given plenty of chances to make full use of the sliding challenge.

    Bolton are in danger of slipping up at home against Northampton in League One, with the Cobblers leading through Michael Smith's header.

    Southend  are back in the game against  Walsall with a Nile Ranger header getting them on the scoresheet at 2-1, while Rochdale lead 3-1 against Gillingham, who are down to ten men. 

    In League Two Exeter are on course to leapfrog fellow promotion-hopefuls  Luton having gone 1-0 up, while Mansfield  have scored their first goal in five games to lead Carlisle 1-0.

    Bottom side Newport now trail Blackpool 2-0, Mark Cullen scoring the away team's second goal from the penalty spot.

    Burton 3-3 Brentford

    Almost a seventh, yes, seventh goal at the Pirelli Stadium but John Brayford somehow manages to clear an effort from Florian Jozefzoon, who had just come on for Brentford.

    On Twitter, Burton call it the "clearance of the season".

    Birmingham 0-0 Newcastle

    Another save from Birmingham keeper Tomasz Kuszczak to nip the ball away from Dwight Gayle, who looked poised to score his 22nd goal of the season.

    Cardiff 3-1 Ipswich

    A rare goal from left-back Joe Bennett extends Cardiff's lead at home to Ipswich.

    Probably too late for the Welsh side to mount a charge for the play-offs, but there's definite optimism for next season if they can continue the form they're in under Neil Warnock.

    Birmingham 0-0 Newcastle

    This substitution shows the strength in depth Newcastle have.

    Daryl Murphy comes off, 21-goal Dwight Gayle comes on. Still no breakthrough at St Andrew's from either side though.

    Fulham 1-2 Wolves

    Fulham have scored almost two goals per game at home in the Championship this season, and having got one back against Wolves, this man can probably expect to be busy in the final 30 minutes at Craven Cottage...

    Burton 3-3 Brentford

    The goals just keep coming at the Pirelli Stadium and what a finish by Brentford winger Sergi Canos.

    After scoring his first goal since coming back to the club earlier today, Canos has brought the Bees back from two goals down to draw level with a strike from a silly angle after some slack defending by the hosts.

    QPR 4-1 Rotherham

    QPR are surely home and dry against doomed Rotherham. Massimo Luongo heads in his first Rangers goal.

    Meanwhile, Aston Villa are pushing for all three points at Wigan. They've brought on Henri Lansbury and striker Scott Hogan, who's back after a month out injured.

    Fulham 1-2 Wolves

    Hello. A bit of life in Fulham now.

    Denis Odoi picks the ball up on the edge of the Wolves area, sees he has some space and decides to take a shot.

    Turns out to be a good decision and the ball smashes into the bottom corner.

    Breaking

    Some news to bring you regarding Huddersfield midfielder Jonathan Hogg, who was carried off on a stretcher following a nasty collision with his own player during Friday's 4-0 loss at Bristol City.

    The Terriers have confirmed that Hogg suffered a fractured neck in the incident and is unlikely to play again this season.

    The good news is that Hogg has now been discharged from hospital.

    We wish him a speedy recovery.

    Birmingham 0-0 Newcastle

    Birmingham are indebted to a stunning save from Tomasz Kuszczak from Daryl Murphy's header off a corner.

    It looked destined to nestle in the bottom corner, but the Polish goalkeeper somehow manages to palm the ball away.
